Zhang Chu could see that this old man did not have a good feeling towards the “big shot” who forced them to work, so whatever Zhang Chu asked, he answered.
Even in this old man’s expression, there was some hidden excitement.
It was as if he was about to be avenged.
So Zhang Chu asked the old man, “Old man, what do you say, if I meet that great man ……”
“Then you must get rid of the devil and save us poor dead people.”The old man hurriedly chimed in.
Zhang Chu looked odd, “How am I going to free you guys? Beat you all to death all over again and let you sleep honestly in your coffins again?”
The old man was slightly stunned.
But very quickly, the old man said, “That’s not necessary, I think that it’s not bad for us dead people to come out for a breather once in a while, to do business and contribute to the people.”
“It’s just that the money we earn, can’t all be taken by that big shot.”
Zhang Chu smiled faintly, “I see, what you mean is, let me get that big shot killed.”
The old man hurriedly said, “Yes, if you get that big shot killed, in the future, the people in our building, who have worked hard to earn black money, can all give it to you. Of course, I can collect the money for you, hehehe.”
Zhang Chu was speechless, this old guy, this was wanting to find a new master and let the fat pass on his side.
Of course, all people had selfishness.
This ghost, surely also had selfishness, and it wasn’t surprising.
However, Zhang Chu still asked, ”Why do you think that I can beat that big shot? I remember when we met at the beginning, you were quite a drag.”
The old man hemmed and hawed, “Of course I can see that you are capable.”
“As for the reason why,…… honestly, since we dead people changed our human skin, you are the first one to be able to see clearly that there is something wrong with us, your dao, is absolutely remarkable!”
Quite clever!
So Zhang Chu said, “OK, I know about the matter, let’s put it this way, you tell me all the shops that those dead people opened and their locations, in these two days, I’ll go to see the situation first.”
“Wait until it’s time, I’ll go and meet this big shot you’re talking about.”
“Okay!”The old man was very painful and told Zhang Chu the addresses of a dozen or so shops.
There were beauty shops, slimming shops, seafood shops, cold drink shops, tea shops, and so on.
After Zhang Chu recorded the locations of the shops, he bid farewell to the old man.
Zhang Chu saw that after the old man left the shop with his little grandson, he didn’t rush back to his own neighbourhood, the little grandson was just like a real child, very playful, and had to go to the playground.
Then the old man took his grandson and went to the playground, with no intention of going back.
At this time, Hot Pot said, “Woof woof woof, grandpa, this old man is not doing his job at all, didn’t he say that he was working as a security guard in that neighbourhood, but as a result, during working hours, he brought his grandson around.”
Yang Xiaomai also bristled, “That’s right, this old man is derelict in his duties!”
Zhang Chu also laughed bitterly, “I said that when we came to this neighbourhood, there was clearly no security guards, how come when we left the neighbourhood, suddenly there were security guards, the feeling is that this old man wanders around carelessly every day.”
Of course, there was no need for Zhang Chu to care about how people went to work.
At this moment, Zhang Chu took his mobile phone and completely memorised the few shops that the old man had told him about.
Then, Zhang Chu looked at Yang Xiaomai again, “What are your plans?”
“If you don’t kick me out, I’ll follow you.”Yang Xiaomai said.
“What kind of words are these, don’t you have a home?”Zhang Chu asked.
Yang Xiaomai spread her hands, “My parents are dead, I don’t have a home.”
“Loved ones?”
“The relatives are all afraid that I will go to them.”Yang Xiaomai said.
Zhang Chu looked odd and didn’t comment on anything.
At this time, Yang Xiaomai said, “I’m just an orphan, I can live anywhere, if you don’t want me, then the big deal is that I’ll sleep on the street, and when I’m hungry I’ll find a restaurant at random, and there’s no problem with getting a full meal.”
Hotpot made a sarcastic remark on the side, “How come you’re even worse off than me?”
Yang Xiaomai, on the other hand, swept a glance at Hot Pot and spoke, “Children without parents are inherently not as well off as a dog from a rich family.”
Zhang Chu thought for a moment before he said, “I’m going to stay in this small town for the last few days.”
“Then I’ll follow you.”Yang Xiaomai said.
Zhang Chu thought for a moment, and Yang Xiaomai hurriedly said, “Don’t worry, as long as you feed me and give me food, I can do anything for you.”
Then, Yang Xiaomai proposed, “How about you directly give me some money as well, I’ll buy you food and drinks every day, it definitely won’t affect your work, and I can also run errands for you.”
“You just need to use me as a maid, I’ll stay by your side for two years to make sure I won’t be captured by the ghosts, and I’ll leave again.”
Well, although Yang Xiaomai seemed to have a big grin and wasn’t scared when she saw a dog talking, or when she saw a dead person talking.
However, she still didn’t want herself to be captured back inside that building again, so staying by Zhang Chu’s side became her best option.
Hot Pot also spoke up, “Grandpa, I think she’s quite good, so let her buy us roasted chicken to eat.”
“That’s fine.”Zhang Chu was fine with it.
It was just one more person to eat, and he could also help himself with a little bit of chores, so Zhang Chu was happy to relax.
At this time, Yang Xiaomai looked outside, “It’s already dark, why don’t we find a place to stay first?”
“Yes!”Zhang Chu said.
Soon, Zhang Chu brought Yang Xiaodai and Hot Pot and arrived at the hotel.
“How many rooms?”The young lady at the front desk asked Zhang Chu and Yang Xiaomai.
Without waiting for Zhang Chu to speak, Yang Xiaomai shouted, “Nonsense, what are the two of us doing here at the hotel? Have you ever seen a man and a woman holding a dog and opening two rooms?”
“I’m sorry I’m sorry, I’ll immediately open a room for you, a king-size bed room!”The front desk young lady hurriedly apologised.
Yang Xiaomai then said, “I want a theme room!”
Then, Yang Xiaomai turned her head, looked towards Zhang Chu, and asked him, “What theme do you like? Is it something a little darker and mysterious, a little more passionate and exuberant, or a little more solemn and dignified?”
“What the hell is all that?”Zhang Chu was at a loss.
The front desk lady also had a head full of black lines, “I’m sorry lady, we’re a regular hotel here, we don’t have the themed rooms that you’re talking about.”
In the end, Zhang Chu brought Yang Xiaomai and Hot Pot to stay.
The next day, Zhang Chu brought Fondue and Yang Xiaomai and went to check out the shops one by one in accordance with the location given by the old man.
At a barber shop, Zhang Chu had the owner give Yang Xiaomai a new hairstyle.
At a pet shop, Zhang Chu had the boss give Hot Pot a vitamin supplement.
Even Zhang Chu experienced a massage at a foot wash shop, and as a result, Zhang Chu was very satisfied.
In two days of work, Zhang Chu and Yang Xiaodai, the hot pot, experienced quite a few special shops.
In the end, Zhang Chu and Yang Xiaodai, with the hot pot, returned to a restaurant.
At this moment, Zhang Chu commented with great satisfaction, “Tell me, how does it feel?”
Yang Xiaodai spoke directly, “Brother Zhang, even though it feels strange to experience their service knowing that they are all dead people, their craftsmanship is worthy of the price they asked for.”
Obviously, Yang Xiaomai was very satisfied with the boss who did her hair.
Hot Pot also said, “Grandpa, I think, that the one who owns a pet shop is also not bad, at least, the pets that his family sells are all quite lively, and it’s obvious that the young lady who owns the pet shop genuinely likes small animals.”
Zhang Chu also nodded his head, “Yeah, originally, I was thinking that in case the owners of these shops, engage in some messy stuff, I would make a move.”
“But now, it seems like there is no need to make a bid.”
Because, these shops, not only did they not lack any catty, but they were also warm and considerate, with affordable prices.
Even the fish selling shop that Zhang Chu suspected, after going in, he found that the owner was using a special kind of incense.
Zhang Chu even felt that these shops run by dead people were the proper shops of conscience.
Taking the fish shop next to a shop selling delicatessen, that was a shop run by a living person, Zhang Chu let Yang Xiaomai buy two pig’s trotters for the hot pot, and as a result, he gave half a catty less even though the meat was still stinky.
Compared to a shop run by a dead person, Zhang Chu was more interested in smashing a shop run by a living person!
“These shops, there is no need to smash them, tomorrow, I’ll go meet that big shot.”Zhang Chu said.
